KING BUFFALO RELEASE DEBUT ALBUM, ORION, ON AUG. 5; PRE-ORDERS AVAILABLE NOW

The title track from the eight-song release is streaming now via The Obelisk (http://theobelisk.net/obelisk/2016/05/23/king-buffalo-orion-stream-announce/)
with pre-orders available via: (http://kingbuffalo.bigcartel.com). In a
review of Demo, The Obelisk said “the airy guitars leading the charge of
an organic vibe that recalls some of the heavy psych of recent King Buffalo
tourmates All Them Witches, a light rural touch and Neil Young influence in the
vocals on the open verses leading to a jammy march that’s immediately and
viciously engaging, becoming only more so when the quiet break swaggers into a
stop and subsequent full-tone fuzz riffing.” Hometown alt-weekly,
Rochester City Newspaper, said of the band, “Deliciously fuzzed out and
psychedelic in all its mid-tempo grind and glory, King Buffalo takes the sludgy
dirge of stoner rock and opens it up to a thunderous and very dynamic
trot."

“Orion is the culmination of months of crafting, recording and mixing in
our practice / recording space in Rochester, New York,” drummer Scott
Donaldson explained. “We’ve developed a sound that feels familiar, but is
dynamic and unrelenting. As musicians we’ve learned to embrace the hills
and valleys of each piece and try to complement it. To finally have these songs
available and cut to wax is very exciting. It's the best stuff we've ever done,
and we can’t wait for people to hear it.”
